Viasat, Inc.
Earth Station Renewal Application
Attachment to Question 8

                               Viasat Inc. Ownership Information



         Viasat, Inc. (“Viasat”) submits this Form 312-R Renewal Application seeking renewal of
its earth station Call Sign E040213 (the “License”). Question 8 of the form requires a renewal
applicant to identify the most recent application or report containing information regarding the
applicant’s organization.

        Viasat has provided information regarding its organization and ownership in certain
previously filed Commission applications in connection with the License, including a transfer of
control application in connection with Viasat’s acquisition of WildBlue,1 and the pro forma
assignment of the license to Viasat.2 While there have not been changes since those applications
that would constitute a “transfer of control or other changes in the applicant’s relation to the
station, or financial responsibility,” there are fluctuations in the ownership interests reported, and
some of the officers and directors have changed over time. Therefore, the following is an update
to the ownership and officer/director information that Viasat has filed in previous International
Bureau applications pertaining to License.

       Viasat is a Delaware corporation and a publicly traded company headquartered at 6155 El
Camino Real, Carlsbad, California 92009. As a publicly traded company, the stock of Viasat is
